Summary: This short is amazing. This is only my second short (haven't tried bibs yet) and for less than 2x the price I paid for my first Pearl Izumi shorts, they are 10x better. I purchased these because my cheaper pair gave me the 'diaper' look and I figured that I should see what the difference is between a good short and an average one.
The RS short features a 10-panel design, which fits like a glove and keeps you looking normal (or as normal as one looks wearing a cycle short). Super comfortable and the grips on the thigh keep the short from going anywhere. Highly recommend. Also, although originally $125 and up, I got this short at ajssportinggoods.com for only $87.50
Strengths: Super comfortable. Soft, flexible material, nice on the skin. Ergonomically superior with 10-panel design.
Weaknesses: None yet.

Summary: These shorts were purchased because I was using a "low-end" pair of short with all kinds of problems. A friend recommended these to me and based on his experience (in cycling for many years) I purchased these short. These shorts have been the best purchase that I have made!!! I highly recommend them. The comfort is just amazing!!!!!
Strengths: Formula FX chamios, comfort of material
Weaknesses: none

Summary: The Sugoi RS Flex bib shorts are the most comfortable shorts/bibs I've ever worn. Half price at Campmor by the way. Great pad, great leg grippers, and just the right thickness of moisture wicking material.
Strengths: Comfortable pad, thick enough for the long days in the saddle, but not too thick that it feels like a diaper.
Weaknesses: none

Weaknesses: nada

Summary: When I switched to the Fizik Arionne saddle I realized that these were my most comfortable shorts - best chamois. Good cushioning around the lower ass, upper leg area. Now I have four pair and only use these
Strengths: Great chamois, great looking - sexy stitching, long wearing
Weaknesses: I actually like the PI waist band a little better. It's cut lower and when I was heavy in the winter it fit my gut better. Now that I'm in shape the Sugoi's fit great
